    Either way, it's complimentary

    Abnormal request

    - I've been drinking since 6-something, I think I might be drunk.

    Blast from the past

    - If I find you vaguely hot and you, me, we have to just get it on for the sake of old times. I need to see how the universe will shift.
    - Maybe I should come in my crummiliest clothes to prevent the universe from shifting.

    Well

    A woman came up to me and said, 'you want special service?'. I said no, was that the right answer?

    Makes perfect sense

    - I don't want his number, what do I need it for?
    - You need his number so that when he calls you, you'll know it's him and you can ignore the call.

    Even in Edinburgh

    - Everytime you wear the golf shirts, remember us.
    - And everytime we eat dumplings, we'll think of you.

    Two Cities

    - I think I will just stick to these illegal bike taxis.
    - It's not very good when you're in high heels and skirts though.
    - Yes, but I'm not often in high heels and skirts in Shanghai. In Beijing, that's different.

    I think taking the piss out of friends is just snacks for drinks, you know.
